Press Release – New Zealand PoliceAucklanders are advised of possible delays on part of the motorway network and roads near the central city, on Saturday, due to protest activity. A large-scale Police operation will be running to prevent any unpermitted pedestrian access to the Auckland Harbour Bridge or motorway network. The Freedom and Rights Coalition’s permit to march on the bridge was declined in December by New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi. Superintendent Naila Hassan, Waitematā District Commander, says Police will be well placed to respond to unlawful attempts to access the bridge on foot. “A large operation has been planned, with resource coming from across the Auckland region and other parts of the country,” she says.
